Dry January · Copenhagen

Dry January in Copenhagen, and still out of the house.

15 listings in Copenhagen where the evening is about something other than the drink: run clubs, sauna socials, soft clubbing. Pubs and bars stay listed everywhere else on the site.

A month, one thing a week Phrases for the bar
The numbers we can source. Alcohol Change UK, the charity behind Dry January, reports 215,000 participants in 2024 and 200,000 in 2025 on its own campaign page; sign-up for 2027 had not been announced when we checked on 20 October 2026. That counts people who signed up with the charity, not everyone who skips a drink in January. Alcohol Change UK ↗

This page only adds a view. Bars, pubs and every other listing stay exactly where they are on Come Alone. Dry January, Damp January (drinking less) or neither: all fine.

How it works

A month of evenings out in Copenhagen: how it works

  1. Pick one regular thing a week, such as a run club on Wednesday or a game night on Friday. A fixed slot is easier to keep than a plan.
  2. Open the official page and check the date, time and price; January schedules shift after the holidays.
  3. Open Meet & Mint to see who else is going and say hi in the event chat. Many of the events on our sites are also in the app.
  4. Order what you like. Use the phrases above if it helps; nobody at a quiz or a run-club coffee is counting.
